About enterprise policies

Understand what policies are and why they are useful.

To help you enforce business rules and regulatory compliance, policies provide a single point of management for all the organizations owned by an enterprise account.

Chaque stratégie d’entreprise contrôle les options disponibles pour une stratégie au niveau de l’organisation. Vous pouvez choisir de ne pas appliquer de stratégie, ce qui permet aux propriétaires d’organisations de configurer la stratégie pour l’organisation, ou vous pouvez choisir parmi un ensemble d’options à appliquer pour toutes les organisations détenues par votre entreprise.

For example, with the "Base permissions" policy, you can allow organization owners to configure the "Base permissions" policy for their organization, or you can enforce a specific base permissions level, such as "Read", for all organizations within the enterprise.

You can view the policies available to your enterprise on the Policies tab in your enterprise settings.
